322 BI-CENTENARY OF CARL VON LINNE. 



studioruni vinculum quo, quamvis longo spatioruni intervallo divisi, 

 cum cultis veteris orbis gentibus simus coniuncti, tum communem 

 nostram divini illius hominis venerationem testificentur. 



Nos quidem nostram debemus originem Alexandro Macleay, homini 

 A'ere Linnaeano, Academiae vestrae Socio, per annos septem et viginti 

 Societatis Linnaeanae apud Londinenses Secretario, qui, cum anno 

 demum MDCCCXXV. hue advenisset, semina sparsiteorum studiorum 

 quae nos praecipue colimus, quaeque iam per totam Australiam florent. 

 Quorum studiorum fructus cum lyinnaeo vestro, qui primus veras 

 naturae animantis rationes per orbem terrarum propagavit, iure refer- 

 amus acceptos, dies festos, quos in maiorem illius gloriam celebraturi 

 estis, faustis omnibus pio gratoque animo prosequemur. 



Legavimus autem Socium nostrum Jacobum Petrum Hill, in Collegio 

 Londinensi Universitati Affini Zoologiae Professorem, qui feriarum 

 sit particeps et nostris suique verbis bona omnia vobis comprecetur.
